“When you feel you have pushed your life to the limit and you can’t go any further, give that obstacle one last push because that might be the one that gets you through that heavy door to success! If you don’t try that one last time, you may never know. Go for it!”
Topic — The Drunkard Man: Never Quit! [Saturday, September 30, 2017]
(Proverbs 4:20-26; Psalms 121:1-2).
The Late Dr. Ken McFarland loved to always tell this popular, funny but inspirational story which I am sure you must have heard at one time or the other. I am led to use it today:
“ A man who worked from 6 pm (night shift) – 6am normally walked home through the local town cemetery as a short-cut to his home. One night, as he was walking through the same regular route, he did not realize that during the day, a fresh grave had been dug in the very center of his path. He stepped right into the grave and started struggling to get out. His best efforts failed him. He decided to relax there till the morning when help would come. Just some few minutes later, a drunken man also using that shortcut, fell into the same grave hole. The drunken man fought desperately to climb out, crawling at the sides. The First man in the grave held the leg of the drunk and said, “Hey my friend, you can’t get out of here.”
